Twin mommies I need help

So I'm 12 weeks pregnant with mo/Di twins and these will be my first children.. So I already have cribs and stuff picked out but it's some stuff that I just don't know would be best? I drive a 2007 charger so I so have some room in my car but not like an SUV what do y'all recommend for car seats and strollers? I'm 5'0 so I didn't wanna get a stroller that was so overwhelming for me but hey I'm having twins also is there a difference between strollers and infant strollers? Like will I have to upgrade soon after they grow

I'm currently 35 weeks with my first babies as well. We had gotten the Graco Click Connect 35 car seats and they fit wonderfully in my car (Kia forte). By wonderfully I mean I put them in the car on the base and I am still able to put my front seat where it needs to be for me to drive (I'm 5'7" though). As far as a stroller, we received a double snap and go and it fits lovely in the trunk. The car seats sit on it and it is very light in my opinion.

I'm still searching for the stroller for when they're older since I'll need something that fits my trunk but doesn't take up the whole trunk.

I have a friend who is about your height and has an 18mo old singleton. She decided to get an SUV recently because it was difficult for her to navigate her daughter in a rear facing convertible car seat in her Honda Accord. So not something you'd really have to consider for over a year from now?

We got the Chicco tandom stroller because it folds smaller for a double than others we looked at. In order to figure that out though we went to the store and played with all of them all. Took them apart, folded them up, pushed them around, put the car seats in and out of them.

I used a graco tandem stroller for the first year, was very nice to be able to just put their car seats on the stroller and now that they are almost 2, I use a Valco side by side bc my boys hate the tandem now, not as comfy and can't recline like my Valco can. The tandem can fit in the trunk of the charger and still have some room. we have a charger as well but my husband only drives it. I've used it a few times with the twins, car seats a little tight getting them in and out but still works good. I'm 5,1 and still have room behind my seat! Good luck!

I used a Joovy Twin Roo with 2 Chicco Keyfits in the car for the first year. For walks in our neighborhood we have a City Mini GT double that we love. It's too big for the car, though, so when LOs outgrew the Keyfits we got a Chicco Echo double that stays in the car.

At 8 months we are still using a Joovy twin roo with chicco key fits also. They fit in my Accord with my older daughter's booster. I also have a joovy scooter x2 side by side that fits well in my trunk and is easy to open/close. I am only 5'2" and can use it pretty easily.

We use the double snap n go with graco car seats our girls are 1 year today! Still fit in graco and double snap n go just fine. We also have a double jogging stroller which is awesome as long as you don't have to put it in your vehicle. We bought a cheap double umbrella stroller for shopping or maneuvering in small spaces. We also have a double combi that a friend gave us used that folds up quiet small.

We used a baby trend snap n go as long as our twins were in infant seats. It folds super compact and it basically lived in our vehicle. It was very easy for me to handle, fold up and lift into the car, etc.
